Rental agreement
Version 2026-11-02-draft-1
Draft for attorney review. A lawyer has not read this yet, and we do not claim it has been legally reviewed. It is written in plain words so you know what you are agreeing to.
- $60 a week for the first 4 weeks, then $40 a week.
- $50 deposit, fully refundable, back to you when the unit is returned.
- Take care of it, keep it clean, use it safely.
- Not medical care. No outcome is promised.
Who is renting
You, the person named on the reservation. You must be 18 or older, and you are responsible for the device while you have it. If someone else uses it, that is on you.
The device
A high-power handheld red and near-infrared light: the Ironforge Mini. We record the unit's serial number and the condition it left us in, and we check it again when it comes back.
Period and rates
Your rental runs from the start date to the end date you reserve. Rates are $60 a week for the first 4 weeks, then $40 a week. The estimated total on the reservation page is exactly that sum, shown before you send anything.
Deposit and refunds
A $50 deposit holds your dates. It is fully refundable: any time before you take the unit, and in full when you return it in good condition. We take it by text while Square is not wired. If we cannot serve your dates, the deposit comes back to you.
Delivery and pickup
Choose delivery or pickup on the reservation page. Delivery is available within about an hour of Madison; pickup is arranged with us when your dates are confirmed. US-wide shipping is coming soon.
Care and cleaning
Wipe the unit down between uses, keep it dry and out of dust, and do not take it apart or try to repair it. Do not use it in water or anywhere it could get wet. Keep it somewhere a pet or a child cannot knock it over.
Damage and loss
Normal wear is fine. Beyond that: the deposit covers damage up to its amount ($50), and you cover the rest of a repair. If the unit is lost or not returned, you pay the retail price of the device. If you damage it badly enough that we cannot rent it again, that is the same as loss.
Safe use
- Eyes. Do not look straight into the light. Use the eye protection we send, or close your eyes and turn away.
- Skin. Move the unit slowly; do not hold it on one spot for a long time. Warmth is normal; heat that builds is not.
- Time per area. Follow the short guide we send. More is not better.
- Stop if anything hurts. If it stings, burns, or feels wrong, stop and tell us.
- Not for children without an adult present and responsible.
- Medications and conditions. Some medicines make skin light-sensitive. If you take one, or you are pregnant, or you have a skin condition, ask your doctor before you use it.
Not medical treatment
This is a wellness device, not medical care. We do not diagnose, treat, or promise any outcome. Talk to your doctor, or your surgeon if you are recovering from an operation, before you use it, and follow their advice first. Nothing here replaces them.
Return condition
Send it back in the case, clean, with everything we sent you. Tell us early if something is wrong rather than after the end date. Late returns are charged at the weekly rate until it is back.
Cancellation
Cancel any time before delivery and your deposit comes back in full. Once you have the unit, cancel by returning it; we charge only the weeks you had it. If we have to cancel, your deposit is refunded the same day.
Contact
Use /ask/ for anything about a rental, or reply to the text thread that confirmed your dates.
